FWIW, at this point I'd forget about send/receive and create the backup (assuming one doesn't exist already) using more normal methods. At least if the original send/receive hasn't yet been done, so it'd be copying off all the data anyway. Perhaps mount selected snapshots and back them up too (after the current case is backed up), but throw away most of the snapshots. Of course if there's an existing relatively current sent/received base to build on, and no indication that send/receive is broken, definitely try that first as the amount of data to sync in that case should be MUCH lower, but if not... -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
